Cassano slams Spurs striker Richarlison: He is terrible

Former Italy star Antonio Cassano has slammed Tottenham striker Richarlison despite his double for Brazil against Serbia.

One of Richarlison's goals made the headlines, after he performed an overhead kick to open the scoring for Brazil. Despite this, though, a former Italian player is not impressed with the ex-Everton star.

Cassano, who made 39 appearances for Italy, has hit out at Richarlison by claiming the former Blues star is “terrible" and was not impressed with his goal against Serbia .

"I am a person who never denies what he says, and after what I have seen I confirm that Richarlison is terrible," Cassano is quoted telling Bobo TV.

“The second goal? The reality is that he controlled the ball poorly and he got that kick, while the other goal went to an empty goal.

“He has nothing to do with the other forwards in Brazil."
